At the far end of Djurön’s tranquil headland, on the southern shore of the Baltic sea bay, rests this formidable turn-of-the-century villa. After passing through the peninsula’s delightful nature reserve and turning off the road, you are met by a beautiful garden, full of plants that bloom all year round. In the corner of the garden, a grower’s paradise has been created with manicured flower beds and planter boxes in a row, bordered by a greenhouse where you can sneak in and hide among the hanging plants. In the middle of the plot, the large villa stands on a high foundation of natural stone with double staircases leading up to the welcoming living area.

Interiorly, the villa is decorated with exceptional attributes from the time of construction such as several tile stoves, profiled moldings, filling doors and paneling. Everything has been respectfully taken care of and renovations have both highlighted and complemented the historic character. The villa’s 255 square meter living space is well distributed with generous living rooms on the entrance floor and restful bedrooms on the upper floor, looking out over the bay. In addition to a nicely decorated bathroom and guest toilets in a style well-suited to the rest of the house, there is also a sauna. The basement floor offers large spaces for socializing as well as a separate entrance.

The spacious kitchen opens up to a porch resting on the elevated lot in the southeast, where a charming gazebo also stands, extending the outdoor season. Gravel paths run between generous manicured lawns with lush fruit trees and are framed by privacy hedges. At the entrance to the property there is a double garage with underfloor heating and internet connection. The proximity to the archipelago also offers the possibility of a boat berth.

HISTORY
Villa Väpplingen, as the house is also called, contains a piece of cultural history. Pehr Swartz moved the family’s mill business to the peninsula at the beginning of the 20th century, and at that time, a number of workers’ villas were built in the surrounding area. A new small community was formed which mainly exists to this day. One of these is Villa Väpplingen.

SURROUNDINGS AND TRANSPORTATION
Only 15 km from the city of Norrköping the calming feeling of being one with nature arises. On the attractive peninsula Djurön, you have picturesque surroundings next to the sea with both beaches and cliffs for summer bathing, and the peninsula’s nature reserve is fantastic for walks to recover from everyday life. Popular Bråviken’s Golf Club is only 5 km away with several courses in the beautiful coastal environment. Djurön is easily accessible by bus from Norrköping, fast commuting to Stockholm by car and train as well as international travel from Linköping airport.
